Commonly known as an annulment, a declaration of nullity is an official declaration by a tribunal of the Catholic Church that what was thought to be a marriage lacked an essential component and thus was not a true marriage. Information about annulments is generally not discussed outside a tribunal and most people only approach a tribunal when they're ready to apply. This leaves people who are genuinely curious regarding their situation in a predicament. The Rankin Rota exists to fill that gap. We offer services for petitioners and respondents to aid with the process, such as done-for-you petitions and response writing. On our blog, you'll also find free information as we explain the tribunal process and common questions that come up when discussing annulments.
